10 Summer Dresses That Look Great on Everyone


Finding a dress comes easy. However, finding a dress that is sexy, pretty, feminine, or edgy while also being flattering can present certain challenges. Whether you're looking for a trendy-fashion-forward design or a classic silhouette, it's important to seek out styles that are meant to complement rather than obscure the female shape. Don't know where to start? How about here, by checking out the top 10 most flattering dresses on all body types. 

 
  • The Faux Wrap

    One of fashion's biggest myths? That all prints result in an unflattering silhouette. Prints and patterns can not only be flattering, but certain designs can even minimize problem areas. Take this multi-colored floral design on this Three Dots dress, a colorful digital print that uses different contrasting shades like purple, turquoise, and red to complement rather than highlight a curvy body . Additionally, the faux wrap-draping helps create a feminine silhouette, a great trick for curvier figures. Did I mention how fresh and young this digital print looks?

    Looking for a way to minimize a certain body part? Easy, just pick an outfit that highlights another part of your body that you want to showcase. Tibi's two-tone dress features sexy cut-outs that highlight the shoulders, a universally flattering body part. The two-tone colorblock is clean and minimal, a modern combination that is both fashion-forward and elegant. Pair this frock with silver-toned jewelry for edgy appeal.

  • Shape Shifter

    Take a cue from one of the most iconic fashion figures, Jackie O, and add a form-fitting dress to your wardrobe. Unlike shapeless styles, structured dresses like this one from Black Halo will complement, rather than obscure, your figure. The cowl-neck feature reveals and highlights the clavicle, another body part that is universally flatttering. Seamed detailing at the waist combined with a buckled leather belt, further favors the female form. Wear this classic dress with pewter caged sandals for a more modern edge.

    Take advantage of one of the biggest fashion trends this year, the peplum, to accentuate your figure by whittling down your waist and highlighting your hips. DKNY's black lace dress is the perfect way to try out this style as it features a mini-pep that won't distract or overwhelm your frame. The lace design is feminine and edgy, and versatile enough to wear at either a formal or casual occasion. Add a studded belt right above your mini-pep to further whittle down your middle.
